The Brook Street Band
The Brook Street Band
A fictional meeting between Bach and Handel, the two greatest musicians of the baroque era, contrasting the huge variety within their music. The best elements of Bach’s strict Lutheran Germany and Handel’s decadent London combine to enable this creativity to flourish, spirituality and joie de vivre combining, to create an unforgettable event. This is music to feed the soul and calm the mind in these testing times.
